Tecmo Koei is continuing with the "special" line of Dynasty Warriors titles on PSP. The portable system previously saw Dynasty Warriors 6 Special, a reworking of PS3 and Xbox 360 title Dynasty Warriors 6 (Shin Sangoku Musou 5 in Japanese). Next up is Dynasty Warriors 7 Special, a reworking of PS3 and Xbox 360 (outside of Japan) title Dynasty Warriors 7 (Shin Sangoku Musou 6).

Word of the game surfaced today via the usual Famitsu early leak sources. Details have yet to follow, but the game will apparently be released on August 25, priced ¥6,090.

In other Musou franchise news, Famitsu confirms Samurai Warriors 3 Empires for PS3. Word of the game appeared in a retail flier yesterday. According to the magazine, the update will add a large number of generals over PS3's Samurai Warriors 3Z, new scenarios and other elements. Tecmo Koei is also planning download content via PSN. Famitsu lists Empires for release on August 25.
